The League of Women Voters of Monterey County will present a free talk titled: "Voting Matters: What About Turnout?” at a live-streamed "Lunch and Learn" Meeting at noon on Wednesday, March 13, 2024.

Turn-out drives election results. But to be able to turn out, a potential voter first has to be registered. In Monterey County, an estimated 1 in 6 eligible voters are not registered to vote. This presentation will take a close look at population demographics, registration patterns and ways to increase voter registration and voter turnout in Monterey County.

Our speaker, Vinz Koller does research and consults for the US Departments of Labor, Education and Justice and their state counterparts. He has managed numerous political campaigns and voter registration drives, and has been a member of the Electoral College in the presidential elections of 2008, 2016, and 2020. Koller studied English and Political Science at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, and received his Master’s degree in International Policy Studies from the Middlebury Institute of International Studies, Monterey.

All current League members will receive the meeting link on Monday, March 11.  

Non members can send a message to LWVmryco [at] gmail.com  requesting an invitation.
